Kakinada Flyover Service Roads Delayed by Contractor Payment Issues
A new flyover in Kakinada is finished, but the roads leading to it are not.
The company building the roads stopped because they haven't been paid.
People are having trouble getting around because of this.
The local government says it's the state's job to pay the company, and the state says it owes money.
A local politician is trying to help, and people whose land was used for the road haven't been paid either.
The court has said that the government should pay those people before continuing the work, but the flyover was still finished.
The new flyover in Kakinada lacks service roads, causing problems for residents.
The contractor stopped road work due to unpaid bills.
Residents have petitioned the KMC to address the issue.
R&B officials state that they owe the contractor approximately Rs 2.50 crore.
A BJP leader is seeking intervention from the Municipal Administration minister to solve the issue.
